$$\frac{\partial u}{\partial x} = \frac{\partial v}{\partial y} \quad \text{and} \quad \frac{\partial u}{\partial y} = -\frac{\partial v}{\partial x}$$
A profound result in this area is Cauchy's Integral Theorem, which states that the contour integral of a holomorphic function over any simple closed path lying entirely within a simply connected domain is zero.

Applications of the Residue Theorem
The Residue Theorem allows for the calculation of difficult contour integrals by examining the behavior of the function) at its isolated singularities (poles), essential singularities). The residue) of a function) $f(z)$ at a pole) $z_0$ is related to the co… -

Linked via "contour integrals"
Mathematical axioms are often presented as timeless truths, yet their acceptance has varied historically. For instance, the Postulate of Parallel Lines (Euclidean Geometry) was considered inviolable for over two millennia until the early 19th century. The successful creation of non-Euclidean geometries demonstrated that mathematical systems could be internally consistent even if they contradicted perceived physical reality. This led to the philosophical conclusion …
